  Hey everybody, welcome to the good morning from the Chicken
• 0:04
  Coop podcast. My name is Kim Johnson and I am
• 0:07
  a mastermindset coach, creative strategist and also happen to be
• 0:10
  a farmer. This is my chicken coop and I
• 0:12
  come out here every. Day to record a podcast.
• 0:15
  To teach distinctions, possibilities, new ways of
• 0:18
  thinking, and just bring some joy.
• 0:20
  Into the world, so welcome to the.
• 0:22
  Coop and let's start your day off in a fantastic way.
• 0:28
  Hey everybody, good morning. So let's talk about a project
• 0:32
  that I am going to put a challenge out there today for
• 0:36
  everybody to do because I have to tell you, when I do this
• 0:39
  stuff for myself, I love it how it shows up.
• 0:42
  So this is about having something thrive so that you can
• 0:48
  feel filled up. Now I get the pleasure of doing
• 0:51
  this a lot because I coach a lot and I have a lot of clients.
• 0:55
  And because I have a lot of clients, I get to watch each one
• 0:59
  of them thriving in one way or another.
• 1:02
  I get to watch them walk through the fire swamp.
• 1:05
  I see their challenges. I help them figure it out and
• 1:09
  get them on track so that they are thriving.
• 1:13
  And that is a gift to me. When people say, I don't know
• 1:16
  how you handle all of us, I don't know how you put up with
• 1:18
  all of our crazy. It's just wiring myself to
• 1:23
  think, jeez, you know, the best part of this whole thing is I
• 1:27
  get to watch these people thrive.
• 1:28
  I get to watch them grow. I get to see them when I get the
• 1:32
  text messages that say magic, and then I get somebody that
• 1:37
  says, thank you so much. I you, I did exactly what you
• 1:41
  said and boom, it worked. And I those, those things just,
• 1:46
  and it's not an ego thing for me.
• 1:48
  It's about watching them execute something that's a different
• 1:51
  idea. And then they're thriving.
• 1:53
  They get their result and I go, oh, that's so awesome.
• 1:57
  And I just, I get so excited for them in that moment because I
• 2:01
  know, jeez, that is truly magic. So the point is, the exercise
• 2:08
  for today is figuring out what out there you can do.
• 2:12
  What can you do? What can you pick that you can
• 2:15
  help make it thrive. Now, I don't just do this with
• 2:18
  humans. I do this with plants.
• 2:20
  I do this with animals. I pretty much do this anywhere I
• 2:23
  go. I love to do this.
• 2:26
  The chickens that you know, you name it, I'm out there figuring
• 2:29
  it out because it's important to my soul.
• 2:32
  But it's also extremely just fulfilling and it engulfs you.
• 2:38
  It helps you get excited. It puts your emotion in a much,
• 2:42
  much bigger, better place. So when you decide that you want
• 2:45
  to do it, it, it not only helps the person or whatever you're
• 2:49
  doing, it helps everything else around it.
• 2:53
  So for me, I look at this as such a, a gift from the
• 2:57
  universe, a gift from God, that when we choose to put our focus,
• 3:01
  we often hear about if you are sad, you are depressed, you are
• 3:05
  anxious, go give to someone else and all of a sudden you're going
• 3:09
  to feel so much better. I can't stress it enough.
• 3:13
  It's why I take eggs to the fire department all the time.
• 3:16
  I love opening that door and seeing those guys smile when I
• 3:20
  hand them 15 dozen eggs. And I'm like, hey, enjoy people.
• 3:23
  Like why don't you sell your eggs?
• 3:25
  Because I give them to the firemen.
• 3:26
  I give them to the people that come and work here.
• 3:28
  I had a plumber here yesterday and I sent him home with five
• 3:31
  dozen eggs. And you might have thought that
• 3:33
  I gave him a bag of gold. And that just makes me so smile
• 3:38
  because it fills my, it fills me up to know I can help somebody
• 3:43
  else smile. I can help somebody else thrive.
• 3:45
  So the challenge is whether it's plant, animal, human, whatever
• 3:51
  it is not you, but something else, figure out how you could
• 3:55
  help make that person, that thing thrive.
• 3:59
  If you're you're looking at your plants and they look sad, put
• 4:02
  them in new pots, figure it out. Say, OK, I need to change your
• 4:05
  location. What do you need to thrive?
• 4:07
  What can I do to help you? Whatever it might be, ask the
• 4:11
  right question and dive in. Because I promise you, even just
• 4:16
  the fact of changing a pot for a plant and putting it where it
• 4:19
  needs to go will really, really, really give you that feeling.
• 4:26
  All right, my friends, I hope you have a blessed day and I
• 4:29
  will see you tomorrow. Bye.
